Over 2,000 students participated in the two-mile run/walk. Fuel Up To Play 60 had their state ambassador, Alex Villarreal, a student at Hamlin Middle School, along with a former NFL player Roberto Garza, former player for the Chicago Bears, in attendance.

Roberto, a South Texas native and previous Texas A&M University-Kingsville football player, lead the students in football drills and even participated in a milk mustache contest. He also handed out medals at the closing ceremony to the top 30 runners.
